MacBook Pro: Magic Keyboard Not Connected

nkh wrote:

MacBook Pro is used daily. Today, while in use, the screen suddenly informs me that bluetooth keyboard cannot be found.

Using the mouse to open “System Preferences / Keyboard / Set UP Bluetooth Keyboard” the caption states: “Magic Keyboard Not Connected”.

Advice?

If your Apple wireless mouse, keyboard, or trackpad isn't working

Thanks! However... perusing the link you've provided, nothing suggested is helpful!

I was able to log-in to MacBook Pro by hardwiring-in my iMac keyboard. If I logout of the MacBook Pro, it is impossible to enter a log-in password using its own keyboard!

Any help appreciated!

Try resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

if no resolve Try resetting the  SMC  https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295

If still no progress I would Call Customer Support  (800) MY–APPLE (800–692–7753)

The problem with the 2 links you've suggested is that accessing them requires a functioning keyboard... that's my complaint!

I could reconnect my iMac keyboard to the MacBook Pro... but that's cumbersome... and I have reservations that either link will solve the problem: MacBook Pro finds no attached keyboard! The MacBook Pro is early 2015 and probably should be replaced.

Thanks!
